It is increasingly clear that far too many Americans (and non-Americans too) have fallen under the spell of the \u201cmultiverse,\u201d a concept popularized in recent blockbuster films (though first introduced back in the 1961 comic book \u201cFlash #123.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Then there was \u201cThe Dark World\u201d (2013) and the 2016 \u201cDoctor Strange,\u201d in which The Ancient One announces that, \u201cThis universe is only one of an infinite number\u2026. Some benevolent and life-giving; others filled with malice and hunger.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

First came the huge 2018 hit \u201cSpider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse,\u201d in which the evil Kingman can open portals to other universes and pull different versions of the teen hero (some who have not aged well) into our world. Then came two more Spider-Man films that \u201cconfirmed\u201d the existence of the \u201cmultiverse.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Then, in March, we saw the surprising success of \u201cEverything, Everywhere All at Once,\u201d the comparatively low-budget ($25 million) film that has already passed the $100 million mark in the 15 weeks since its release. This film too exploits the so-called multiverse, in which the lead character Tupaki and other people exist in multiple timelines and live very different lives in each.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Today, many of America\u2019s youth, brainwashed by the craziest socialists ever produced at our \u201cnormal\u201d schools (what teacher colleges used to be called), have no idea as to their real identity and thus are imagining genders that outnumber Baskin-Robbins\u2019 ice cream flavors \u2013 but that is only a smokescreen that obscures the deeper illness foisted upon their tender brains.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Deprived of a sense of history, these children have been recruited by Pied Pipers of the New Hamelin to a total rejection of the society that has enabled them to eat, drink and be merry without having to work (while children in \u201cdeveloping\u201d nations slave away to provide the raw materials for their cell phones, X-boxes and other electronic toys).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But they are unable to see the connection between their affluence (which they pretend to reject while remaining totally absorbed) and the inhumanity (including sexual exploitation) foisted upon \u201cmigrants,\u201d \u201csub-humans\u201d (like Uighurs), and one-armed, one-legged Congolese children who provide the cobalt for their precious EV and other batteries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But whose fault is it that our children are so deceived but our own? Families who would never allow strangers to babysit their children send them off to \u201cschools\u201d whose aim is to separate them from any vestiges of their families\u2019 histories and values.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That said, what to do now?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A major obstacle to bringing truth to the brainwashed generations is that words no longer have any meaning to them \u2013 truth has been twisted, censored speech, and mocked and defamed those who speak out against their evil deeds. Every word we use they counter with screaming mockery and demonization.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The answer should be obvious. As Frank Barnard explained a century ago, \u201cA picture is worth a thousand (or ten thousand) words.\u201d Half a century ago, Marshall McLuhan reiterated this principle with the immortal words, \u201cThe medium is the message (massage).\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Words will not convey the reality of this inhumanity that serves our privileged protesters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is a visual generation. So we need imagery to reach the brain-dead who are impervious to rational thought. And, to be effective, we might even want to use sardony and sarcasm thinly enough disguised that some will even think we are celebrating the ignominy of rich Americans living high on the backs of Third World children.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Let us make \u201cmockumentaries\u201d about the glories of the modern electric vehicle and of the solar panels and wind turbines they cherish that begin with valiant prose lauding the eight-year-olds in Congo who dive into open pits for cobalt and other critical metals and the sacrificial work of Uighur slaves who produce most of the world\u2019s solar panels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Maybe cartoons \u2013 or a new Zorro-esque movie \u2014 could show the glorious work of Mexican cartels, aided by both Chinese \u201cfentanyl scientists\u201d and American politicians, who send hordes to trample on the homes and property of working class Mexican-Americans who have the gall to oppose this benevolent dictatorship. Such a movie would also show those dying of overdoses to be deserving of their fate. Kinda like Maoist propaganda films used to do.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We cannot win the battle for the hearts and minds of the disaffected with logic and reason \u2013 because they have been programmed to reject all logic and reason and instead to follow mantras and dare not to step one inch out of line. That\u2019s what cancel culture is all about \u2013 oppressive conformity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There is, of course, the danger that Gen Zers will be thrilled to see images of one-armed, one-legged eight-year-old Congolese children rather than shrink in horror at the inhumanity that undergirds their virtual unrealities. After all, the generation that demands we surrender all our guns spends hours every day killing scores of virtual enemies by every conceivable means.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Still, the Trojan horse was an effective strategy in days of yore, and we may have no better weapon left than that used by Jonathan Swift and others who dared not speak directly against the evils of their day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Remember that in the classic film \u201cWar of the Worlds,\u201d humans were powerless to defeat the invading aliens, but lowly bacteria wiped them out summarily. The injection of sardonic humor just might be the \u201cvirus\u201d that eradicates the great disease infecting the hearts and minds of the \u201cwoke\u201d generation and wins this possibly final battle for the soul of humanity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
